Usage notes

This word refers to a specific type of loan covered by banking law rather than the civil code, where the creditor must be regulated as a bank, the debtor must use the money only for the purpose specified in the loan contract, and the debt must carry a regulated amount of interest. The broader term for any type of loan is pożyczka.
